Is enmity potency independent of enemy damage mitigation?

I OT'd praetorium for the first time in ages. Right before the ultima weapon echo, I cast cure a couple of times after the MT had been spamming 3 or 4 halone combos to try and build enmity. Curing myself twice while full HP in sword oath nearly stole the hate from him. He had slightly better gear with a slightly worse weapon, so it's not like I was stealing enmity from a fresh 50 or whatever.

I'll see what sort of effect flash has if I'm ever in that situation again, but I'm almost certain it's not as powerful. I kind of wonder if Ultima's got some kind of enmity multiplier for heals or something.

That happens with the healers normally, because physical damage done is only 1, so you aren't getting squat from using an RoH combo.

I think this is specifically something with Ultima, though. Like T4 (I suppose there are other mobs as well) the soldiers that have the stoneskin don't take any damage but enmity works as normal. Not sure exactly why it doesn't work that way with Ultima.
